The Trending Project is a series of videos that utilize media clips that were trending during specific weeks of time online. The project focuses on how we watch and read about wildly different trending subjects – from a cat to a military coup – all within the same week, and in the same digital space.  Video, audio, and other online ephemera are layered on top of one another, remixed and mashed together to de-naturalize our experience of trends.  This collapse of time and space blurs the lines between entertainment, dramatization, advertising, and journalism.  These videos are then wirelessly transmitted from a hacked router to viewers’ mobile devices, where (once they connect), they are continuously redirected to watch this video archive of trends.
